What a miserable pile of shit that is, commending itself neither through looking nice or being comfortable to sit on(I'm assuming that's what it's for, as opposed to being the worst installation art ever)

Good god almighty, ebay has 'suggested' this atrocity to me earlier today

s-l1600.jpg

Including highlights such as

POWER - Perkins NAD
HANDLING - LDV Pilot Chassis
STYLING - plastic pig nailed on top
INTERIOR - 'minimalist'

 

we have never got round to putting a MOT on it but cant see a reason why she wouldn't go though one

If I owned an MOT station I'd just refuse on principle to test it.

Miserable looking house. Look at the rags on the radiator and the shite, plastered walls. £600? Oh do fuck off.

That wall looks like a ceiling.

I like the rear no.plate treatment. Is that an actual Crossflow under the bonnet, or an Endura-E as the valve cover suggests? If it's the former, that's probably worth most of the asking price these days. Not that I'd buy it, I'd love another but I'd prefer a complete car with problems to a rusty shell.

The squashed dog turd on the road next to it really adds to the ambiance...

Looking at the manifold mounts it's an Endura, not a Kent.

I have a fiesta like that doing duty as a shed for useless scrap valuable parts. Maybe I need to remove the cat piss tarp and cash in $$$. Got to be worth 50p for the steel remaining.

Mini van, crashed 1985, carefully* stored since then.

What I will say is that it has the rear conversion windows that were a popular* after market thing in the late 60's early 70's to convert vans to cars.

But still, its a bag of shite.

£3000 doesn't get you much of a defender these days 

I wonder if it drives like one of those clown cars

looks like a mobile ringing kit to me. In the wrong hands that's probably worth £12k.

I think it's like one of those build your own car magazines subscription things from deagostini first issue 99p, regular price £8.99, only 899 issues to collect.
